Subject: RE: returning the wildflower prairie, what do you need?


I have 62 acres in the pollinator program, put it in in 2016. Local SCS had seed for sale to plant it, cost about $600/acre to seed. A guy at work told me to call Wilton Seed Co in Newton, Ia. He gave me a SCS approved seeding list for $250/acre. Late fall seeding with a no till drill. First year I mowed it 3 times to keep the weed down, second year I mowed just the weedy parts. Call them for recommended ways to seed it, Mine gets thicker each year without working any of it. Heck, If you aren't in any hurry, I'm just across the river from Muscatine, drive down and pull off the varieties of seed you want and hand plant it if the area isn't too big. Wilton Seed Co, 563-260-2fourninesix. Chris
